"GBP/USD Forecasted to Rise to 1.3500 in 2024"
In a recent update, the global FX head at Goldman Sachs has predicted that GBP/USD is poised to extend its upward momentum to reach 1.3500 next year. Citing correlations with stocks and easing concerns about global recession, Goldman Sachs notes that GBP has a "reliable positive relationship with higher stock prices."
The recent surge in the British pound is partly attributed to the broad weakness of the US dollar. Since early November, the pound has also strengthened based on trade-weighted grounds, showcasing resilience in an environment of moderate interest rate volatility and rising stock prices. Goldman Sachs anticipates more of the same in the coming year, asserting that the British pound has ample room for appreciation as the market embraces the notion of a "soft landing."
The upcoming elections are likely to both encourage additional fiscal support and alleviate some trade conflicts with the EU. Both outcomes are expected to bolster domestic growth, mitigate the risk of recession, and further support the British pound.
As we approach 2024, the forecast for GBP/USD looks optimistic, driven by a combination of global economic factors and domestic political developments. Investors will be keenly observing the unfolding dynamics in the currency markets as the British pound aims for new heights against the US dollar.
